Something very scary just happened with my MBP (10.6.8)
first off, let me just say I did latest update just yesterday (from 10.6.6 to 10.6.8) maybe this had something to do with this???
all of a sudden about 30 mins ago my airport wasn't working.. wouldn't connect to my wifi (could connect with iPhone fine..)
(wifi router is my own, in my home...)
then decided to restart, machine wouldn't reboot, whether I tried to restart or shut down.. had to forcibly turn it off by holding down the power button.. fortunately it started up again fine...
but this was very scary.... what on earth could have caused this? I've had this MBP since last September, this has never happened before... (could it be a virus? or those latest updates??)
thank you..
There are still no OS X viruses in the wild. There are some malware applications, but they would generally require that you give them permission to install. Regardless, what you describe does not sound like either. Your system may simply have hung during your attempt to restart. It could be related to the update. It may have been attempting to do some maintainance in the background. I wouldn't be particularly concerned at this point. I would recommend that you go into Disk Utility (Applications / Utilities / Disk Utility) and repair permissions just in case something was corrupt. These kinds of things can happen now and then. They should, however, not happen regularly. If you find this happening on an ongoing basis (even once every few days is too often)... come back here and let us know.

Something very strange is happening with the adjustment brush
When I brush over an area of a photo with the adjustment brush, LR does not select all of the area I brushed over, regardless how many times I go over it. The unselected spots look like pepper sprinkled on mashed potatoes, small dots that will not select, and so will not do whatever effect I'm trying to do. Like if I brush a hillside, the little dots will appear (apparently randomly) If I change the color temp the selected area changes like it should but the little specks do not change. LR will not select them. Please help.
Sorry, not the right answer. But thankx for taking a shot. According to
Adobe LR does not have enough pixels when I'm working on a macro subject
(say a butterfly that I'm trying to work on at 2x in the navigator) there
just are not enough pixels. So I have to transfer projects that deal with
micro subject into PS, PS had no problem detecting the holed and filling
them in, what I've got to do is select using the magic pen or whatever
works best and then make adjustments to the selection. We do that, no
problem. Then back to LR for larger more general adjustments. I have no
idea why, WHY Adobe would have two programs that work so closely together
and yet not have identical selection abilities. That's a mistake in my book.

I just switched over to an iPhone 4 CDMA on the verizon network the other day. I connected with my MBP/ w Lion and the sync seemed to go flawless.... All my date was pushed thru the iCloud, but then I saw that my main email address @me.com says that it is inactive when I look at it in Settings- Mail-Accounts. I can see that the iCloud account name and password is wrong, but I can not seem to find out how to correct it. Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot,
FredYou either have an incredibly complex computer setup or I think you are confusing terminology here. If you have iTunes set to share your library with others in your iTunes preferences then other computers in the area will see it as an item when they are running their iTunes and have it set to check for shared libraries. Your husband is probably seeing this when running iTunes on his computer. You can disable this sharing on your computer and/or he can set his not to pick up shared libraries.
By the way, an iTunes account is something you log into when you want to buy something from Apple. On your computer it is simply your iTunes collection or your iTunes application. So you need to turn off sharing in your iTunes application preferences.
Your husband is seeing "his" iTunes collection when running iTunes, but it is possible he doesn't have anything in it if it is a brand new computer. -
Something really crazy just happened...
Well, just like any normal time on my iBook, I have Photoshop open, everything is going fine. All of the sudden it freezes, which actually is the first time that this has ever happened, so I click the power button off, and on, as a manual restart. Then what happens is that it makes the little noise everytime you start the computer, but then the grey screen with the apple and the loading icon is flickering, from there it goes to a red screen, green, blue, and back to grey. Finally it turns black, and I really have no idea what just happened. Anybody know what I can do?
Hi Richard.
Sorry to tell you, but it sounds like you have a logic board failure. I found this at http://www.the-set.com/ibook-dilemma/first-post :
I bought an iBook G4 in January. Since then there have been three logic board failures, each roughly 3 months after the previous one. The last failure was in early September. Last night the computer showed signs of yet another failure:
– Screen locks ups; – After forced restart computer runs for a few minutes, and then screen goes blank and starts to flash colors (green, red, blue, grey) and then goes blank in a pattern.
I've never really had any experience with logic board failures, so I'm not sure exactly what to do next... but if it is a logic board failure, you'll have to get it repaired, and if you're still under warranty it should be repaired at no cost.

Regarding your suggestion to try the free LibreOffice, at the moment I don't need this, because I have downloaded a one-month trial Japanese Microsoft Office 2011 and can open my current files with that, although I do not want to revise any of my files until either this problem is solved, or I purchase a new MS Office.
Unfortunately there is not many MS Office software in English available here in Japan. I spoke to Microsoft Japan and even though they sell software, they do not sell any English verions of MS Office. Incredible, considering that the company itself is located in the US. They suggested I buy it from Amazon Japan, however Amazon do not have any available at this time and do not know if they will in the future.
Anyway, I have found a company which sells the downloaded English version (no disk). The software is Microsoft Office for Mac Home and Student 2011. I have not purchased it yet. It would take too long and the postage charges would be too high to purchase it from the US.
Hoping you have some good ideas.
Best regards,

So, I was about to shut down my MBP. I clicked the Apple icon to shut it down, and instead of the drop down menu, the whole screen suddenly turned gray and a window popped up that told me to restart my computer. I tried restarting it, but I couldn't use the cursor, so I had no choice but to just hold the power button. I was just wondering what happened to it.
Hello Katherine,
You had a "kernel panic." This occurs when something happens that the Mach kernel (the most basic foundation of OS X) encounters something from which it cannot recover. Instead of summarily shutting down, possibly causing data loss, or freezing completely, which would require you to force a shutdown (another possible cause of data loss), the kernel attempts to crash "elegantly."
This doesn't always happen. If the kernel was successful, however, there should be a "panic log" (check Console.app) describing the circumstances surrounding the panic. This is one of the ways the kernel attempts to be "elegant" when crashing: it logs the event if it can.
Panics can be caused by faulty hardware, like bad or improperly seated RAM, or a bad logic board, or they can be software-related. In the latter case, chances are you may have encountered a disk error that damaged some critical system files; when an attempt was made to use those files, the kernel crashed.
I'm sorry to say it, but if you have had one, chances are good that more will follow. You might want to use Disk Utility to verify and repair (if necessary) your hard drive. If it becomes apparent that disk errors are involved, I would recommend making a good backup, formatting (erasing) the drive, then reinstalling OS X and your applications. Your backed up data can be returned to the new installation.
If there does not appear to be anything wrong with your file system (your hard drive), meaning no disk errors are found or appear, it might be time to have someone at Apple have a look at it. Hardware-wise (if the problem is indeed hardware-related), it could just be a loose RAM module, but it could also be something much more serious.

Very Disconcerting Issue Happened with my WRT54G
Does anyone know what would cause my router (WRT54G) to reset to factory defaults just out of the blue? I did not touch the reset button at all. In fact, I was on my laptop in another room when it happened. I lost wireless connectivity and while troubleshooting it, I discovered all of my settings had been reset. Even the password to access the interface into the router was reset to factory default. I was able to fix everything, but I'd like to know what caused it.
At first, I thought I may have been hacked, but I have a very strong key phrase set with WPA2-PSK encryption. I also have enabled the MAC filter and only permit access to the PCs I have listed in the MAC filter list. Fireware is also up to date.
I know it's still not impossible to hack, but I can't see anyone with the type of knowledge to beat those security features wanting to hack into my network.
Are there any other reasonable explanations of why this happened?
EDIT (I forgot to add 2 things):
1 - There was a power outage here earlier in the day, but I had connectivity for at least an hour after it came back on, with no issues.
2 - Right before this happened, I started getting 'A duplicate IP address has beee detected on the network'. This one was really strange because the router hands out the IP address via DHCP. Why would it give out one already in use?
Solved!
Go to Solution.It was probably because of the power outage. You can either keep a backup copy of your settings through the backup and restore tab or use a surge protector to prevent your router from losing those settings in case another outage happens.
The duplicate IP issue was probably because of the outage as well. -
When typing, my letters go all over the screen, just happens with Firefox.
After installing Firefox, when I type, the letters go all over the screen, instead of where I try to type them. I used to type without looking at the screen. Now I have to watch... my cursor disappears, and the letters I'm typing go into something I've previously typed correctly.
== When I installed Firefox, and it happens constantly.Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

A very strange thing happening with Nokia Map Load...
I am trying to load new maps onto my x6.
When I click on Nokia Map Loader it tells me that another instance of the programme is running and that I need to close that one down first.
But this is not the case. I have no other programmes running.
It mentioned that I might have the maps updater programme running. Again that wasn't true.
I uninstalled both and started again.
Same problem.
I try launching map loader through pc suite. Same thing.
I am really flummoxed and I hope someone can help.
Thank you.Did you set up "hot corners" for Expose?
I bet you have the up/left corner set for "Application Windows" then when you move over and have no apps open you get the warning noise. When you move slowly you just don't hit the corner to triger expose

What just happened with my email settings?
Whenever I have composed an email in the past, I would always be able to change the font size to make the print larger. The options for that would be right there on the screen.
Now it's not there anymore. Is there a way I can pull it back up again and if so, how do I do it?
I am only able to change the default settings which doesn't seem to do anything for the font size.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Without knowing your browser and/or OS I would guess if you run Internet explorer it could be the recent update to version 11, try running this site in compatibility mode

Can using a MB power adapter with a MBP become a problem?
I got a late 2008 Macbook here and a early 2008 Macbook Pro. I noticed that the power adapters are of different size. When I use the power adapter of the late 2008 Macbook with my early 2008 Macbook Pro, it gets quite hot which, I assume, is due to a higher power requirement of the early 2008 MBP.
Can this become a problem?Although I cannot say for your particular combination, the general rule tends to be that a power adaptor that is lower in power rating than what was issued can run the computer or charge the battery, but not both. There are time when you need max power. It's obvious from Apple docs and reports here that the MBP can draw from both the battery and AC power under extreme workload condition. In such a case the battery would run down, something less likely to happen with the proper adaptor.
I have a pre-owned PowerBook G4 17" that should have a 65W power adaptor but came with a 45W unit. It will not start on AC power without some charge on the battery. That's the stuff you can encounter.
Did you notice that the Late 2008 Macbook Pros rate their own new forum here:
